I am simply trying to echo or print out specific data from a DB into a string (i hope thats the right name), which should be a very simple process as I've done it before. The point is everytime a user inserts information into the database this string echo's or prints out the inserted data.
But for some very odd reason this time around when i try to echo out the data, I literally get this.
Very frustrating. As you can see from the image above i have tried using 2 different ways to do this a variable and a session, but the echo literally just prints it out. I have done this before so i am aware that it is possible. I am just a little lost into how i am meant to achieve this or even better where i went wrong. I know how to do this using a different style of coding, but i am trying to keep everything uniformed (newbie).
$addon_name = $_SESSION['Add_On_OpName'];
mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_INDEX); //overrid a common php nonsense error
$prod_sel = $dbc->query("SELECT * FROM Add_On WHERE Add_On_OpName = '$addon_name'");
$prod_sel->data_seek(0);
while ($output = $prod_sel->fetch_assoc()) {
$prod_run .= $output['Add_On_OpName'] . $output['Prod_Name'] . $output['Add_On_Price'] . $output['Add_On_Select'] . '<br>';
$addon = $output['Add_On_OpName']; //echo out product name
$_SESSION['Prod_Name'] = $output['Prod_Name']; //echo out product desc
$_SESSION['Add_On_Price'] = $output['Add_On_Price']; //echo out price
echo '
<p>$addon . " " . $_SESSION["Add_On_Price"]; </p>
';
My session is started and the php file is connected to the DB. I also have error handling which has not given out any error messages.
